It has been demonstrated that crises (e.g. epidemics, economic downturns etc.) have several socio-economic implications both in the short and long term, as they force people to rethink about their habits and to adapt their lifestyle and routines (Sarmento, Marques, & Galan – Ladero, 2019). One of the main effects of crises is the consumer buying behaviour (Alonso et al., 2015).
